Here is the list of objection in using social media, we all hear from people for using social media. Nick Shin listed these 30 objections in his blog post and also he gave some tips for how do you respond to these objections.

1. Why should I? I don’t need to. Just because everyone else is doing it, doesn’t mean I have to.

3. It costs too much

4. I’m in no hurry

5. I have no desire

6. It will require too many resources within our company

7. I’m worried about the legal ramifications/regulatory issues

8. It’s too risky; we’re better off doing nothing

9. You can’t measure it; social media results are not easily visible to non-users

10. We give up too much to the customer; privacy issues

14. It will take too long to implement

Really, there is no war between KM and SM. Here, more important is how KM and SM helps to meet company goals and business objectives. His view on KM is not correct.

So, what I think KM and SM both should come under same umbrella to achieve the organization goal.
